Abstract
To reveal risk factors of overweight, the authors examined 841 miners of underground copper-nickel mine. Overweight was seen in 42.9%, obesity in 17.7% of the examinees. Obesity risk is determined by age at least 30–34 years (OR = 1.49; DI 1.00–2.23), length of service on the enterprise at least 6–10 years (OR = 1.32; DI 1.06–1.64), female sex compared to male (OR = 1.87; DI 1.25–2.80), work hardiness of 3.1 class vs. 3.2 class (OR = 1.39; DI 1.00–1.95). No evidence support that the obesity was influenced by any separate mining occupation. Conclusion is necessity of scientifically justified correction of miners’ diet considering its calory content and energy expenditure in modern technologies of raw materials extraction.
